No, I think what Vish is saying that it's possible to get the Openstack
access key and secret by doing the following:
(Based on Folsom, but think it's the same in Essex)
1. Login with your account in Openstack dashboard (Horizon)
2. Go to <Settings> page
3. Click on EC2 Credentials
4. Click on Download EC2 credentials
The access key and secret seems to be in the file ec2rc.sh.
Description:

Clicking "Download EC2 Credentials" will download a zip file which includes
an rc file with your access/secret keys, as well as your x509 private key
and certificate.
That's what you want right? Hope it helped.
